Subject: [PATCH v2 10/12] Maintain preemptability count even for !CONFIG_PREEMPT kernels
Do not preempt kernel. Just maintain counter to know if task can be rescheduled.
Asynchronous page fault may be delivered while spinlock is held or current
process can't be preempted for other reasons. KVM uses preempt_count() to check if preemptions is allowed and schedule other process if possible. This works
with preemptable kernels since they maintain accurate information about
preemptability in preempt_count. This patch make non-preemptable kernel
maintain accurate information in preempt_count too.
